Gammabutyrolactone is included in the solvent such as wheel cleaners, pesticides, cosmetics, drugs. After ingestion GBL is converted to gamma-hydroxybutyrate. Both substances are classified as so called "club drugs" and their action is characterized by euphoria, sedation, and induction of retrograde
Saussurea lappa has been used in Chinese traditional medicine for the treatment of abdominal pain, tenesmus, nausea, and cancer; previous studies have shown that S. lappa also induces G(2) growth arrest and apoptosis in gastric cancer cells. In this study, we investigated the effects of hexane
Saussurea lappa C.B. Clarke (Compositae) is indigenous to India and Pakistan. The dried root of S. lappa has been traditionally used for alleviating pain in abdominal distention and tenesmus, indigestion with anorexia, dysentery, nausea, and vomiting. Santamarin is a sesquiterpene lactone isolated
Exatecan mesylate (DX-8951f) is a new hexacyclic camptothecin analogue with favorable attributes compared to topotecan and CPT-11, including watersolubility, greater potency against topoisomerase I, lack of esterase-dependent activation, broad antitumor activity, and low cross-resistance against
OBJECTIVE
A Phase I study of exatecan, a new water-soluble camptothecin derivative, was conducted to determine the maximum tolerated dose and a recommended dose, according to an internationally standardized core protocol. Pharmacological profiles of lactone and total (lactone + carboxylate) exatecan
OBJECTIVE
We conducted a phase I trial of the injectable formulation of topotecan given orally once daily for 5 days for 2 consecutive weeks (qd x 5 x 2) in pediatric patients with refractory solid tumors.
METHODS
Cohorts of two to six patients received oral topotecan at 0.8, 1.1, 1.4, 1.8, and 2.3
OBJECTIVE
We conducted a phase I and pharmacokinetic trial of CPT-11 (irinotecan) to characterize the maximum-tolerated dose (MTD), toxicities, pharmacokinetic profile, and antitumor effects in patients with refractory solid malignancies.
METHODS
We treated 32 patients with CPT-11 administered as a
OBJECTIVE
Topoisomerase I inhibitors have shown promising anti leukemic activity in acute myelogenous leukemia (AML) and myelodysplastic syndrome. In this phase I study, we investigated the toxicity profile, pharmacokinetics, and activity of a prolonged continuous infusion schedule of the colloidal
GI147211 is a novel, totally synthetic camptothecin with promising preclinical and early clinical activity. This study was designed to determine the maximum tolerated dose of Gl147211 as a 72-h infusion and to describe its pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics on this schedule. In a single-arm,
OBJECTIVE
9-Aminocamptothecin colloidal dispersion (9-ACCD; NSC 603071) is a specific inhibitor of topoisomerase I that can be given p.o. This Phase I trial was conducted to determine the toxicity profile, maximal tolerated dose, and pharmacokinetics profile, including bioavailability, of p.o.
OBJECTIVE
To conduct a phase I and pharmacologic study of the new topoisomerase I inhibitor, 9-aminocamptothecin (9-AC).
METHODS
A 72-hour infusion of 9-AC was administered every 14 days to 48 solid-tumor patients at doses of 5 to 59 microg/m2/h without granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF)
Topotecan (SK&F 104864-A, NSC 609699) is a water-soluble, semi-synthetic analog of camptothecin which is an inhibitor of topoisomerase I. Since topoisomerase I is cell specific for S phase, we undertook a phase I study to determine the maximum tolerated dose and toxicities of continuous infusion
Topotecan is a specific inhibitor to topoisomerase I. An oral formulation of topotecan is available with a bioavailability of 32-44% in humans. A phase I and pharmacological study of the oral formulation of topotecan administered daily for 5 days every 21 days was performed in adult patients with
OBJECTIVE
To determine the maximum-tolerated dose (MTD), dose-limiting toxicities (DLT), and pharmacokinetics of 9-aminocamptothecin (9-AC) in a colloidal dispersion (CD) formulation administered as a 30-minute intravenous (IV) infusion over 5 consecutive days every 3 weeks.
METHODS
Patients with
BACKGROUND
9-Nitrocamptothecin (9NC) is an orally administered camptothecin analogue that has completed phase III trials for pancreatic cancer. In biological matrices, camptothecin analogues exist in equilibrium between the active-lactone (LAC) and inactive-hydroxy acid (HA) forms. 9NC has been
